If you're so attractive that all four women at a table would hit on you, and you're the kind of person who would contact them afterwards, then you're probably used to having a lot of easy sex, anyways.
It wouldn't surprise me if he really just expected this would likely end in him having a multiple-partner experience, maybe even up to him with all four women.
Edit: Holy shit. Lots of people downvoting the obvious truth. That's a pathetic abuse of downvote, and a pathetic admission of your own deficiencies. Also, please note that I block people who abuse downvotes as a matter of course.
I'm ugly as fuck with a short dick but luckily I have a great sense of humor.
It's not always about being attractive.
You know what they say: it looks like an inch but it smells like a foot.
You really do 🤣
The only comment I've faved to date is you explaining scissoring to some German guy.
Aaaah comment not found, but what did it say! now i really want to see that apparently amazing comment about scissoring. :D
Truly the Shakespeare of our times
True as that is, you actually have to show off that humor to get numbers. This guy just did what he regularly does at his job. I actually feel bad for him because he probably deserved a better tip instead of 4 phone numbers.
Lets also not forget that this may have been considered quite creepy if the genders were reversed and the server did nothing beyond serving to imply interest.
You're assuming they didn't tip him.
Seriously, why would someone leave their phone number and then not tip well? That'd just set yourself up for failure.
No i assume they did, but i could also see someone thinking "I'll just tip 10% cause my number is easily worth another 5%, if he wants to complain thats a good reason to text me."
You’re literally making up a reason to be mad at them though.
As a man that’s been in those situations, those dudes never tip and they don’t just leave s number. They harass.
I had you up voted and switched to down vote just to make you angry. :-P
I'm not taking character assessments from somebody who complains about downvotes lmao
Downvoting because I think your comment is projecting your insecurities onto everyone else here.
I mean, sure, it's an "obvious truth" to you when you block the 4/5ths of people who disagree.
I don't block people who disagree. I block people who abuse downvotes. Downvote does not mean "disagree," and if you use it like that, then you are abusing downvotes. Perhaps you are unaware, but comment downvotes, like all of the content data on the fediverse, are public information.
People who disagree and express it via their comments without downvoting are fine normal humans whose comments at least have the chance of adding value to the world.
People who downvote a simple truth because they don't like it, or who downvote to meme, are people who add no value to the world, and so blocking them only increases the signal-to-noise ratio. I strongly encourage everybody to look up the people who downvoted that comment and block them all.
What a fucking crybaby. There, that's public information too.
People who complain about getting downvoted and announce that they block anyone who downvotes them and encourage others to do the same add no value to the world.
No one fucking cares!
They do though. Lemmy would be much better if people wouldn't downvote when they disagree. They are signaling that they don't want to know about inconvenient opinions. That silences open and honest conversations.
The general sentiment (don't downvote just because you disagree) is correct, but the context of it is a bit different.
The comment heavily implies ("... simple truth...") that their statement is reasonable and correct. But in reality, their statement is whackadoo nonsense and downvoting that kind of thing is completely reasonable.
Not really. Lemmy would be much better if people stopped complaining about getting downvoted though.
How do you figure? No complaining would be nice, but wouldn't lemmy fully drift into a self-inflicted filter bubble?
No, the people who frequent communities tend to upvote/downvote more. On the collective level that results in the stuff people in that community want to see drifting to the top, and the stuff they don't want to see drifting to the bottom. That filters out a lot of bullshit and makes the user experience better.
It's not like algorithms are being manipulated to promote a profit motive or political agenda, or amplify an in-group while marginalizing out-groups, the way corporate social media does.
It's just an organic filtering based on what the community members as a collective do or don't want to see.
If you don't like the vibe of one community, go find a different one or start your own. Telling people to stop downvoting you is just petulant.
Don't you think that people restrict themselves if they are downvoted for opinions that go against the majority? Dull people like me write their opinion anyway but I think more nuanced people don't bother writing if that is rejcted anyway.
If I wander into a tankie comm and start calling out tankies for being authoritarian hypocrites, I'll accept the downvotes that I'll inevitably be swarmed with. Sooner or later I'll get banned from the comm because tankies can't tolerate any disagreement or being called out on their hypocrisy and disinformation. Whatever, good riddance. I'll just block that comm and go over to one where everybody shits on tankies. And when the tankies show up there to call everyone shitlibs, we'll downvote them into oblivion. Such is the fediverse. Such is life.
Then if a right-winger shows up and starts spouting fascist rhetoric, we'll all downvote them and probably block them and they'll probably get banned. Again, good riddance. I don't want nazis showing up where I hang out.
That's two extremes. Now there's a whole range in between. If I think someone's being disingenuous or not worth engaging with, I'll just downvote and move on. Unless I chime in to have someone else's back. If someone says something I simply disagree with, I probably won't downvote unless it's an extremely bad take that shouldn't see the light of day, or if I think they're being an asshole, or if they're complaining about being downvoted.
Then there's a whole range where it's worth having an intelligent discussion about the different angles we're approaching the situation from. I think those are the most fulfilling interactions, but also the most rare. But I'm also not going to tolerate heaps of bullshit in a vain hope to turn a frog into an erudite scholar.
I could break this down into more painstaking detail and try to describe a formula by which I decide what's worth downvoting and what's not, but the truth is, that's not how it works because I'm a human and I don't need a graphing calculator to tell me what side of the regular distribution or how many standard deviations the line of best fit is on. I just downvote what I feel like downvoting, and I upvote what I feel like upvoting. It doesn't need to be any more objective or deterministic than that. It's one vote, and if 40 other users happen to agree with me by also downvoting, then so be it.
If you're the one getting downvoted 40 times, just get over it. You'll have a miserable experience here if you can't learn to do that.
I am a bit more optimistic. I think that most people on a text based message board can write good enough arguments and pointing out the bullshit helps them to improve much more than heaps of downvotes.
But my problem is more with people who don't write interesting comments because they don't want to be downvoted. I think we are missing out on many interesting arguments.
For the most parts I state facts so downvotes don't bother me directly but isn't this the thing, that people who don't get over it leave?
Yeah, the reason I'm downvoting you is totally because I don't casually pick up fivesomes without even trying, and that apparently makes me deficient somehow.
Go ahead and block me, I don't give a fuck.
You're looking for the worst possible interpretation in what's a positive interaction and you complain about downvotes? Could you be right? Sure. Does it matter? Not really, this is some lightheartes entertainment on the Fediverse. So don't get your knickers in a twist over some downvotes.
Your first paragraph is not unreasonable. Your second one is kinda crazy. Let me be the one to break it to you that conventional 'hotness' is not positively correlated with having group sex.
You are talking to the wrong crowd. Most of these users are incels. You are spot on my guy.
That's what an incel would say. Because they havem't experienced wholesomeness.
You think getting downvored is wholesome?
The incel part is taking a fun, flirty interaction and making it completely porn brained. I don’t know any group of women who would go out and try to gang bang a server, lmao.
What not what i was taking about. I was commenting on the other commentor. Noting about the post.
